SS Rajamouli’s RRR bagged the Oscars for its viral track, ‘Naatu Naatu’ in the ‘Best Original Song’ category at the 95th Academy Awards. This is the second international accolade for the number after the Golden Globe award earlier this year. The ‘Elephant Whisperers’ also won an Oscar in the ‘Best Documentary Short Film’ category.
The ‘Naatu Naatu’ song beat a list of nominees including, Lady Gaga’s ‘Hold My Hand’, Rihanna’s ‘Lift Me Up’, and Diane Warren’s ‘Applause’.
The award was received by composer, M.M. Keeravani and lyricist, Chandrabose. The song was performed ‘live’ during the award ceremony by singers Rahul Sipligun and Kaal Bhairava. The two were joined on stage by dancers led by Lauren Gottlieb and the act received a standing ovation. The performance was introduced by Bollywood superstar, Deepika Padukone.
As India celebrates the dream win, brands have also joined the bandwagon with their creativity at the best!!
